Harissa-Spiced Chicken with Bulgur Wheat Recipe

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

In a small bowl, combine harissa paste, olive oil, cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, and salt.

Rub the harissa mixture all over the chicken breasts.

Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken on both sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

In the meantime, prepare the bulgur wheat. In a saucepan, bring chicken broth to a boil.

Add bulgur wheat, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes or until tender and all the liquid is absorbed.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.

Fluff the bulgur wheat with a fork and stir in the lemon juice.

Serve the harissa-spiced chicken on a bed of bulgur wheat and garnish with fresh cilantro.
